Synta is now the proud owner of Celestron.
They probably bought in because the patents
and technology to make SCT correctors is
essential to reproduce that business in
MAINLAND CHINA! So the next time a tank
rolls over some democracy protester in Tianamen Square,
picture a C8 mounted on the front of it!
Start by getting your data right.
Synta is a _Taiwanese_ company, not a Chinese company. They do have a
manufacturing plant in China, and are already the largest manufacturer of
OEM optics in the world.
They helped design some of the newer Celestron scopes over the last few
years, and so there is little 'new' that they are going to find out.
In fact the 'owners', are a seperate company in the US, that is itself
owned by Synta (SW Technology Corporation).
